Supporting our troops by sending packages of goodies and love from home is Cranes passion. Over the years, shes sent hundreds of packages to family members and friends in the military. But for the uninitiated, sending packages to the troops isnt easy. There are security concerns, Crane said, and miles of rules and regulations and rolls of red tape, which Treats for Troops takes care of so the sender doesnt have to. For Halloween, the company is offering a Halloween Party Pack with lots of candy and treats. Theres also a Halloween Grab Bag - a colorful Jack O Lantern drawstring bag thats over a foot high and stuffed with candy, cookies and spooky monster masks - as well as Junior Grab Bags and Big Bags including phone cards. People who dont have family members or friends serving in the military can send packages filled with treats to a soldier, or group of soldiers, through Treats for Troops Foster-A-Soldier program. In addition to themed packages of goodies, Treats for Troops online store includes many of the basic necessities that people serving overseas appreciate. There are comfortable socks that keep the feet dry, insect repellent, bungee cords, packages of batteries and zip-lock bags that protect everything from snacks to socks. Of course, the store also offers every soldiers favorite: freshly baked chocolate chip cookies. While a holiday is a good time to send a package, Crane thinks the gift-giving should continue all year long. Sending a package lets the troops know theyre not forgotten, she said. |
